Chapter 2653: Chapter 2657: Only Shock, No Delight?

She snuggled into Gu Junzhu’s arms, "Our Fifth Lord of Gu is truly exceptional in everything, even sweet talk. It comes so naturally and effortlessly, it sounds incredibly genuine and sincere."

"What do you mean it sounds incredibly genuine and sincere?" Gu Junzhu pinched her cheek, "My feelings are genuine and sincere to begin with, okay?"

"Yes," Ye Xingbei turned around to face him, cupped his face in her hands, her eyes roving over his face several times, and couldn’t help but laugh, "I also think my Fifth Lord of Gu is the most handsome and good-looking!"

Maybe it’s out of favoritism.

Maybe it’s out of bias.

She didn’t know if there were men more handsome than Gu Junzhu in others’ eyes, but in her eyes, there weren’t.

In her eyes, Gu Junzhu was the most handsome, the best, and the most charming.

Unrivaled.

Even her brothers couldn’t compare!

She was already extremely beautiful, and at this moment, holding Gu Junzhu’s face, her dark eyes like black grapes soaked in water, clean and glistening, emanated a tender glow that made Gu Junzhu feel his bones melting.

Gu Junzhu wrapped his arms around her waist and leaned in to kiss her.

Just as his lips were about to meet Ye Xingbei’s, he suddenly heard Xiao Shumiao’s snickering.

Gu Junzhu: "..."

"..." Ye Xingbei suddenly snapped out of her daze and gave Gu Junzhu a hard shove.

She blushed and looked over with her head tilted.

The three little rascals had somehow come to a stop not far in front of them.

Seeing her and Gu Junzhu looking over, Lingyue and Qin Junye quickly turned around, looking elsewhere, but their silly son continued tilting his head back, watching them and giggling.

Ye Xingbei blushingly asked, "Xiao Shu, why aren’t you skating, why are you standing here?"

Xiao Shumiao, wearing ice skates, skated swiftly over to Ye Xingbei, "Mommy, I came to show you that I can skate now! I learned it instantly. Brother Xueno and Brother Xiaochi praised me for being so clever, the cleverest good boy they’ve ever seen!"

Ye Xingbei: "..."

Here we go again.

The cleverest child is the cleverest child, and also the cleverest good boy!

Sigh.

Feeling worn out.

She said weakly, "You’re really amazing."

Xiao Shumiao blinked, "Mommy, why aren’t you a bit surprised?"

Ye Xingbei: "..."

Surprised at what?

Is it all shock and no delight?

Lingyue turned around, took Xiao Shumiao’s hand, and offered Ye Xingbei a rescue line, "Xiao Shu, shall we skate another round?"

"Okay!" Xiao Shumiao answered happily, waving to Ye Xingbei, "Mommy, don’t stand on the sidelines, it’s no fun there. Come skate with Xiao Shu!"

"Okay, got it!" Ye Xingbei walked to the bench by the edge and sat down to change into skates.

Gu Junzhu sat next to her and bent down to change shoes too, "Can you skate?"

"No," Ye Xingbei said, "I’ve watched it, never skated myself, can’t skate well, will fall, right?"

"It’s okay, don’t be scared," Gu Junzhu said, "I’ll teach you, with me around, you won’t fall."

"I’m not afraid of falling," Ye Xingbei said, "Falling a few times makes it more memorable, and when I get old, it’ll be a pleasant memory." ℴ

Gu Junzhu finished changing his shoes, and seeing Ye Xingbei hadn’t finished yet, leaned over to help her out, "Ye Xiaobei, you really have an optimistic view."

"Of course," Ye Xingbei said, "I’m the kind of person who gets a thorn in my hand and still laughs and feels lucky that it didn’t poke my eye. I’m super optimistic, you should learn from me in the future!"
